9st 3lb

J: Ryan Sexton

T: Julie Camacho

Lost his way as a 3yo but he had smart 6f handicap form last May and a close second to Diligently over C&D (good to firm) in June signalled a return to better days; a Thirsk win at 6f and a close third over 5f at Ascot have followed and he can be in the thick of it.

Stays 6f well but he isn't short of speed and this belated first attempt at 5f looks an interesting move; arrives in top form, successful at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 24 days ago, and a 4lb rise still leaves him with handicapping potential.
